Toronto Under Construction with Ian Pinchin of Crestpoint, Kalliopi Karkas of RioCan, and Lee Piccoli of Fusion Homes
In Episode 104 of Toronto Under Construction, Ben Myers sits down with Ian Pinchin of Crestpoint, Kalliopi Karkas of RioCan, and Lee Piccoli of Fusion Homes for a wide-ranging discussion on the intersection of policy, capital and development strategy across Ontario’s housing market. The conversation moves from the province’s temporary HST elimination on new homes to bulk condo-to-rental conversion funds, large-scale mixed-use redevelopment, institutional capital markets constraints and the long-term evolution of ownership in Canada. Spanning high-rise urban intensification, income-producing retail repositioning, master-planned communities and private equity discipline, the episode captures a market navigating uncertainty while still making long-term bets on growth. *Sponsored by: BCGi Baron Consulting Group Executive Search*
